So, update to why I haven't been on 5ever. My family is on a struggle bus.
The money we get from my dad being in the military is stopping in a couple months because I'm graduating.
My family is trying to figure out who can get a job, while also watching my oldest sister at home. (she has epilepsy)
So, if you guys could be praying that God makes obvious what he has for us to do, that would be great! Thanks, guys!

That sounds like remarkably awful, that's true strife, honestly. Hugs Bethany, will pray.

Ok. Um I have a friend (kind of) who's really struggling right now. He's lost his parents and grandparents and is really struggling right now. I'm really worried about him though because he says all the time that he wants to die and I'm terrified that he'll end his own life. Maybe even tonight. He's a wonderful, amazingly talented person and I love him so much! So if you could pray for him that'd be amazing. Thanks guys.

Is that what you’re saying?" -Jay Smouse

Hey guys,
I know that I've asked before, and I'm sorry, I just haven't gotten around to opening up about my problems to the people in my life because I feel like such a burden. I need prayer.
The thing is, my grades are slipping, my health is declining, anxiety has me captive and I'm not doing anything productive. I listen to people talk and I hold a pencil, but I can't summon the energy to work. Everything hurts, and I am most always suffering from nausea and aches.
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us - Romans 8:18

Please know that I've been praying for you Jo; and if you feel like a burden, please don't. We're your brothers and sisters in Jesus, and we're supposed to bear each other's burdens, and I would be happy to do that for you. I'll be here for you as best I can, and don't worry about me but if you don't feel comfortable sharing that's fine. I love you, and will continue to pray. *hugs tight*

I've been praying for you to Jo. Don't give up hope. =( Some others on here will recommend talking to people, or maybe even getting some professional help. Especially if you have bad health problems. Hang in there. *hugs*

Jo, please do not feel like a burden. You need to get help and its not your fault. I will be praying for you for sure and as others have said you might want to get professional help. If you ever need someone to talk to feel free to message me dear. I love you very mych and so does God. You will get through this trust me. :) Please dont lose hope. You got this girl!

Hey, guys. I have a cold with a fever of 102. I have no time for this cold. If you could pray that it blows over quickly, that'd be great! Thanks!

Thanks, Connie :) We are not out of it yet, though. My little sister had a really high fever and for awhile she was in the delusion that she and 8 of her had pulled down one of my dad's trees because it was in her way. O.o Its was pretty funny at first but she would not get out of it and that can cause brain damage. So if y'all could keep praying that would be great.

Hey, could you guys pray for my family. We all have a really bad cold.
I'm actually in Florida on my graduation trip. I'm basically over it (after a week in a half), but then my mom came down with it.
Also, at home today, Ben (Nelson S) is going to the ER.

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that, hopefully you're still enjoying your trip.
I will definitely be keeping your family in my prayers.
